Gerber Tri-Fold Shovel with ACU Cover - Used

Used Gerber G.I. Tri-Fold Entrenching Tool (E-Tool) with ACU Cover

The Gerber Tri-Fold Shovel is the gold standard for military entrenching tools, battle-tested by U.S. forces worldwide. Unlike lightweight civilian camping shovels, this G.I. issue tool is built from heavy-duty forged steel with a high-impact glass-filled nylon handle. It features a versatile 3-position locking head that allows it to function as a traditional shovel, a 90-degree pick for breaking hard ground, or a flat-folding spade for compact storage.

Included is a Used ACU Digital (UCP) MOLLE Shovel Cover. Constructed from rugged Cordura nylon, this pouch features heavy-duty plastic snaps and reinforced PALS webbing, allowing it to be securely mounted to rucksacks, assault packs, or tactical belts. As Used surplus, both the tool and the cover show signs of professional field use—such as paint wear on the blade or light fading on the camo—but remain 100% structurally sound and mission-ready.
